Hello,
My name is Elizabeth. Im always so tough...
Until this fear grabs me at sundown and emotional flashbacks occur.
Its than that everyone is sleeping, and my ptsd keeps me awake for hours. I have been through multiple traumas and am ok until its dark. As i type, im terrified. I need comfort, and safety.

Hi Elizabeth - I too have suffered from PTSD most of my life due to traumas in my past. I was not able to "get a grip" on myself (physically, emotionally, spiritually) until I finally broke down and put my life into the hands of God (Jesus Christ). Besides praying, I also find that being able to "share" my experiences with other compassionate Christians who understand helps to cut my burdens down to size for me. Please feel free to write back, and may God bless you always!!! Keep praying and trusting God!!! :)

Matthew 11:28-30
28 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”


He said we can take his yoke upon ourselves and LEARN from him. He is gentle and humble. His Yoke and his Burden are easy and light.


Life does get rough, even Paul despaired of life (2Cor 1:8). It's just more bearable through Christ

Dear Elizabeth! I pray asking God to heal you! May our Lord Jesus Christ listen to your and our prayers. Matthew 18: 19-20 says 19 “Again I say[a] to you that if two of you agree on earth concerning anything that they ask, it will be done for them by My Father in heaven. 20 For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them.” :) Don't worry Elizabeth! God is love! :)

But I meant to ask you, is this a medical condition that can be treated as well? I mean, is it possible to seek medical help too?!......

Really get into God's Word...He will lead you into peace and well-being. Much of our fear is put in our minds by Satan...when we know Scripture we really can use it to rebuke the evil one. Find Scripture verses that speak to the fear that you are experiencing. Write them out and carry them around; speak them silently or out loud to rebuke him. As your relationship with Jesus grows, you will be able to defeat this darkness. The power of the darkness will leave. Praying for you :).

There have been two times when, at night, I felt the presence of evil near me. I prayed in Jesus' name both times and it fled. Prayer really does work.

friend I want you to understand Satan tricks he's known as a tricksters, deceiver of the brethren, and the tools in which he choose to use on God's people are the spirit of discouragement, distraction, and doubt. it's really a stronghold from that spirit. God word tells us., FOR THOUGH WE WALK IN THE FLESH, WE DO NOT WAR ACCORDING TO THE FLESH. FOR THE WEAPONS OF OUR WARFARE ARE NOT CARNAL BUT MIGHTY IN GOD FOR PULLING DOWN STRONGHOLDS, CASTING DOWN ARGUMENTS AND EVERY HIGH THING THAT EXALTS ITSELF AGAINST THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD, BRINGING EVERY THOUGHT INTO CAPTIVITY TO THE OBEDIENCE OF CHRIST 2COR. 10:3-5

sweetie these are what our enemy uses to discourage God's people. But Oh!! I have good news to share with you also
He said in ISAIAH 26:3, THE LORD, IS EVERLASTING YOU WILL KEEP HIM IN PREFECT PEACE, WHOSE MIND IS STAYED ON YOU, BECAUSE HE TRUSTS IN YOU. TRUST IN THE LORD FOREVER, FOR IN YAH, THE LORD, IS EVERLASTING STRENGTH ...


be at peace ok. BrotherG
